Isaiah 5:13-15
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 Therefore my people go into exile
for lack of understanding,(A)
Its nobles starving,
its masses parched with thirst.
14 Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat
and opens its mouth beyond measure;(B)
Down into it go nobility and masses,
tumult and revelry.
15 All shall be abased, each one brought low,
and the eyes of the haughty lowered,(C)
